Very Happy with DSmobile 600. Although, the software could use a "little" improvement. After several calls to the software company, they were able to help me out. Wish the software would be able to keep a running account of receipts. All in all a very good piece of equipment. Recommend it to anyone...

Love the scanner but, have a few suggestions: 1. When trying to scan receipts, being thin, they won't start automatically. Plastic cover is a pain. 2. Would like to see software that would automatically date and categorize the items scanned, and even run a balance sheet. Overall, very nice piece of equipment.Chas

Found this scanner to be easy to use, and scans were of good quality. I want to mainly give credit to the staff representatives I dealt with. They were Professional, Polite and I found them to be really helpful. The warranty response was excellent and turn around time was never more than 3 days on replacements when things went wrong. I like the product and have told family & friends about the Company & products. There seems to be a problem with lines appearing on scans after a period of use, but replacements are forthcoming in great time as I stated earlier.

I have been using the scanner non-stop since I purchased it. I am using it in an office setting, not home. It suits my needs as I generally am scanning one or two pages. I have used it for larger documents, and it was just a little tedious to feed in the numerous pages. It also works well for me as I did not have the space to allow for the rather large footprint of the bigger scanners. I would recommend this for purchase.

Does a nice job of copying but doesn't always feed straight, especially on smaller items like credit card receipts. Too bad you have to manually start the associated program before feeding documents. Would be better if putting document in feed slot automatically invoked the program. Anti-intuitive to have to feed documents face-down.

This scanner's portability is fantastic. However, it is temperamental when scanning photos. The really glossy photos tend to get stuck part way through and you have to scan the photo several times to finally get it right. I have tried cleaning it two or three times just before attempting to scan the photo again and sometimes it resolves the problem, sometimes it does not. No issues with scanning papers or receipts.

VERY SIMPLE TO INSTALL ONTO COMPUTER, BUT NOT ALL OF THE SOFTWARE WORK WITH MY WINDOW 8 COMPUTER. KEEP GETTING ERROR MESSAGES THAT NOT ALL WAS DOWNLOADED, NEED TO RE-INSTALL, BUT WORK SCANNING ANYWAYS AFTER CLOSING ERRORS WINDOWS, PLUS IT LEAVES LINES IN PICTURES. HAVE CLEAN AS INSTRUCTED AND STILL MAKE LINES IN ALL PHOTOS.

It is a very good product and very fast to scan. It is very compact. Not much space. It is very light. Installation and setup is easy. Only connects to the USB port and go. I recommend it to a friend to buy it. It's a great portable scanner. I am very happy.

Have not had time to use this yet, but did install on one of my computers. Installation instructions were lacking and took a while before I figured out the ins and outs of the drivers. Will update when I have a moment to really work with this item.

So far I am pleased with the scanner . I have Windows 8 and I'm waiting for the "drivers". Please hurry. Victor Z was most helpful in getting me started with what I can do at this time. I did have a little trouble loading the software. I had to go into the control panel to get started. I'm sure I will continue to enjoy the use once drivers arrive. Thanks ,zaza

Purchased the DSmobile 600 with some reserve as it is so small- I am totally impressed with how well it works, the small size is just an added plus! Worked right out of the box, no problems with the driver or software on Windows 7 64 bit- Brother has outdone themselves with this product!

This little device does everything Brother advertises, and then some! I had never realized the value of Page master. The scanner was easy to set up(minutes,really) and easy to get used to and to use. I'm now able to store, and more importantly, ORGANIZE all sorts of data, reports, documents and receipts, EASILY. Thanks Brother...the scanner is worth every cent I paid.

This was a very good buy. It is very compact and really easy to use. I usually don't have much luck with operating this kind of equipment and software that comes with them, this was simple to install and start using right away. I even use it to remotely deposit checks into my business checking account at US Bank. The price is very affordable.

This scanner works perfectly for travel when you need to send documents back to the office or home. I wish there was a connection for the iPad so I didn't always have to carry my laptop, but as far as the device itself, it is lightweight, space saving in your carry on bag and works well.

Handy, practical, fast and accurate scanning device. Scans whether B&W or color are sharp and well defined. The included software works equally well. My only gripe is that copying credit card receipts can be tricky . Sometimes they are pulled sideways or in worst cases not pulled at all because not engaged far enough in the slot. But I suppose with enough practice and care I should be able to overcome this slight annoyance. Other than that I love my little magic wand.

I am constantly on the road traveling for work. This scanner is so helpful with scanning documents for the job and for scanning expense receipts so I never have a backlog. The unit is very reliable and easy to set up. Very light and portable.

this item did not have the 14 lnumbers Brother states are required to register, but had only 13. The cable supplied by them had a warning tape to download software before installationl. The tape stuck to tip, and did not properly remove, and needed cleaning before it could be inserted into port. Brother tech help never considered their product was faulty, but rather told me I had to try it on a different computer with different cable. I asked to speak to supervisor, and was told a return call would be made. No call was made, nor any emails sent.

This product does not work correctly with Windows 7 64-bit. The drivers will install but it appears to be impossible to calibrate the scanner. It worked fine on Windows 7 32-bit but was unable to function after a reinstall to 64-bit. When I was running 32-bit, the scanner worked well but did require cleaning from time to time. It is inexpensive and has a very small footprint.

Cons:

One Page At A Time Feed

Pros:

Good Value, High Quality

Best Uses:

Paperless Filing System

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

In the continous fight to control household clutter, this is my newest weapon. I usually have a box full of "important" papers to file in our filing cabinet - tedious work to be sure. Now, I simply scan everything in, shred the hardcopies, and drag and drop into my electronic file folders. Retrieval's a breeze. My husband is excited about its portability and usefulness on business trips. I'll let him borrow it once, then he has to buy his own! (I only gave it 4 stars because I haven't owned it long enough to rate the durability, and it can't scan a stack of pages - I have to feed one at a time.)
